2/2007 Fremd High School R Word Speech - Fan Community Video - Be a part of it!

Welcome Turner 7th graders! As you begin learning about genetics, I hope you also begin to love those around you with intellectual differences. My son Alex is amazing, you will find that out! I cant think of a better way for you to start reading this blog than with this video. He says it best! Don't ever forget his message.

Paying it forward

My new normal

I am a mamma bear to 4 boys. I take each day as it comes even when the worst becomes reality. I was forever changed by my son's night shift nurse in 2007, she changed my life without saying a word. I have turned these mountains into victories by going back to school, and becoming a nurse, and will pay it forward until my journey ends with a little crossfit in between.

-Alex was born with Rubinstein Taybi Syndrome.Pulmonary hypertension at birth.Malrotation of the intestines.Uracheal cystPhase 2 kidney reflux (right side)Angulated thumbsmild near sighted in right eyedysphagiaPDA

-At five years old my son Max was diagnosed with type one diabetes. He depends on insulin, and each day is a job to stay alive, he is my hero.
